About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 is seeking to procure an Endodry Storage and Drying System for the Kansas City VA Medical Center's Sterile Processing Services. The system is intended to meet VA Directive 1116 requirements for reprocessing and storing endoscopes, with specific objectives of promoting efficient drying, preventing cross-contamination, and maintaining patient-ready endoscope status for up to 31 days. Key requirements include unidirectional processing capabilities, compatibility with existing equipment, and ability to reduce microbial growth using instrument-grade compressed air. The procurement is identified by solicitation number 36C25525Q0207, with responses due by April 1, 2025 at 11 PM Central Time. Interested vendors are required to submit company details, size status, NAICS code classification, manufacturer/distributor information, and existing federal contract numbers directly to the contract officer.

The procurement falls under NAICS category 334510 for Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing and PSC category 6515 for Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies. While specific award value or budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the system will be used to increase endoscope storage time by 19 days and decrease overall staff workload at the Kansas City VA facility. The equipment is designed to support the Sterile Processing Department's operational needs and align with current healthcare processing guidelines such as ANSI/AAMI ST91:2021 and AORN recommendations. Vendors interested in this opportunity should carefully review the technical specifications and operational requirements outlined in the sources sought notice to ensure compliance and potential competitiveness.

Statement of Work
Item: ENDODRY STORAGE AND DRYING SYSTEM
Introduction: The purpose of this document is to provide a statement of work (SOW), for the purchase of the endodry storage and drying system for use when reprocessing, drying, transporting, and storing endoscopes for endoscopy procedures.
VA Directive 1116 Management Of Critical And Semi-Critical Reuseable Medical Devices requires that facilities ensure that all semi-critical reuseable medical devices used for invasive procedures must have equipment available that meets the reprocessing guidelines as outlined by the manufacturer’s instruction for use.
This purchase will be for Sterile Processing Services of Network 15, KCVA Station #589.
Use of equipment: The equipment requested will be used by the Sterile Process Department staff for processing and safe handling of endoscopes.
Requirements: Sterile Processing Services (SPS) needs the following Endodry Storage and Drying system to meet the requirements set forth by VA Directive 1116 Management of Critical and Semi-Critical Reuseable Medical Devices and to adhere to the facility policies for standardized equipment to ensure compatibility for other existing equipment utilized in both SPS and Procedural Departments, as well as staff competency for all equipment used by procedural staff and processed by SPS. ANSI/AAMI ST91:2021 and AORN guidelines recommend unidirectional processing and separate work areas to help reduce the risk of cross-contamination after reprocessing. The ENDODRY Cabinet’s pass-thru model with two doors meets the latest. Recommendations.
Specifications: The endodry storage and drying system promotes efficient drying of internal lumens and external surfaces and provides protected storage of patient-ready endoscopes while minimalizing handling of endoscopes while meeting recommendations for unidirectional processing. This system also helps eliminate residual moisture and reduce microbial growth with the flow of instrument-grade compressed air. It maintains the status of a patient-ready endoscope for up to 31 days, increasing KCVA endoscope storage time frame by 19 days and decreasing overall staff workload while increasing veteran access. This system helps prevent cross contamination and reduce the potential for damage with ADVANTAGE Transport Cassettes that support transport through the reprocessing cycle with minimal handling.
